Police in Williams Lake are trying to identify a body that was pulled from the Fraser River yesterday.

The body was discovered by a fisherman near the Sheeps Creek Bridge.

Earlier this month, two men in Williams Lake were charged with attempted murder and kidnapping. A third person – Brandon Regner – was reported missing at the time.

“We are aware of the most recent missing person investigation and the charges that have been laid and we are exhausting all possibilities to determine if there is any connection with these investigations,” said Inspector Jeff Pelley.

Pelley says RCMP and the BC Coroners Service are reviewing all missing persons’ files to confirm the identity.

If you have any information, give the Williams Lake RCMP a call at 250-392-6211 or call Crimestoppers.
